Numbers 18:8-18
8And YhwhH3068 spakeH1696 unto AaronH175, Behold, I also have givenH5414 thee the chargeH4931 of mine heave offeringsH8641 of all the hallowed thingsH6944 of the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478; unto thee have I givenH5414 them by reason of the anointingH4888, and to thy sonsH1121, by an ordinanceH2706 for everH5769. 9This shall be thine of the mostH6944 holy thingsH6944, reserved from the fireH784: every oblationH7133 of theirs, every grain offeringH4503 of theirs, and every sin offeringH2403 of theirs, and every trespass offeringH817 of theirs, which they shall renderH7725 unto me, shall be mostH6944 holyH6944 for thee and for thy sonsH1121. 10In the mostH6944 holyH6944 place shalt thou eatH398 it; every maleH2145 shall eatH398 it: it shall be holyH6944 unto thee. 11And this is thine; the heave offeringH8641 of their giftH4976, with all the wave offeringsH8573 of the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478: I have givenH5414 them unto thee, and to thy sonsH1121 and to thy daughtersH1323 with thee, by a statuteH2706 for everH5769: every one that is cleanH2889 in thy houseH1004 shall eatH398 of it. 12All the bestH2459 of the oilH3323, and all the bestH2459 of the wineH8492, and of the wheatH1715, the firstfruitsH7225 of them which they shall offerH5414 unto YhwhH3068, them have I givenH5414 thee.1 13And whatsoever is first ripeH1061 in the landH776, which they shall bringH935 unto YhwhH3068, shall be thine; every one that is cleanH2889 in thine houseH1004 shall eatH398 of it. 14Every thing devotedH2764 in IsraelH3478 shall be thine. 15Every thing that openethH6363 the matrixH7358 in all fleshH1320, which they bringH7126 unto YhwhH3068, whether it be of menH120 or beastsH929, shall be thine: nevertheless the firstbornH1060 of manH120 shalt thou surelyH6299 redeemH6299, and the firstlingH1060 of uncleanH2931 beastsH929 shalt thou redeemH6299. 16And those that are to be redeemedH6299 from a monthH2320 oldH1121 shalt thou redeemH6299, according to thine estimationH6187, for the moneyH3701 of fiveH2568 shekelsH8255, after the shekelH8255 of the sanctuaryH6944, which is twentyH6242 gerahsH1626. 17But the firstlingH1060 of a cowH7794, or the firstlingH1060 of a sheepH3775, or the firstlingH1060 of a goatH5795, thou shalt not redeemH6299; they are holyH6944: thou shalt sprinkleH2236 their bloodH1818 upon the altarH4196, and shalt burnH6999 their fatH2459 for an offering made by fireH801, for a sweetH5207 savourH7381 unto YhwhH3068. 18And the fleshH1320 of them shall be thine, as the waveH8573 breastH2373 and as the rightH3225 shoulderH7785 are thine.
